That's not how it works, unfortunately.

Just as an aside, my dad died horribly this past xmas after 6 months of cancer gradually destroying him and everything he'd worked so hard for. He was one of the most fit people I knew until that. He grew up skiing and was a junior patroller at 15 in colorado. By the time I was born, he was patrolling as a doctor and took me everywhere he could, and when he couldn't, he just told me to go to the patrol shack and wait. Anyways, I was with him for those last 6 months, but I curled up in a ball and did nothing to try to make his doctors do anything or find alternative treatment options like the Mayo clinic. I just curled up in a ball of fear and anxiety and did nothing. I was just paralyzed. My dad would have gone to the ends of the earth for me, and I didn't even try to save him. I don't know how to live with that.

Bottled water should be illegal for so many reasons. The water use itself, the plastic waste, the tons of microplastics consumed, and the use of so much fossil fuel to ship a very heavy item around the country when it travels freely by pipe.

Exceptions for places with contaminated water of course.

We really need a new definition for these because it doesn't line up with how people think about them, and as a result the stats are easy to ignore.

A Grand Chute police recruit alleged she was sexually assaulted. Days later she lost her job.

The department didn’t seek outside investigation for case involving its own employee, yet invoked “victim rights” laws to resist disclosing details of the incident involving two other police recruits

I appreciated both sides of this discussion.

I think it's way overdue.
